Shownotes

Was the Wild West really lawless? Why did the 1960s mark a turning point in the gun debate? How did a convicted killer become one of the most influential figures in modern gun politics?

Join Sarah Churchwell and David Olusoga as they discuss how the NRA changed from a sportsman's organisation to a pro-gun lobby.
